Applebee's is dealing with a repeat of an incident that occur ed in the Bay Area in 2007.

In June of that year a two-year-old boy became sick after drinking what his parents thought was apple juice at an Applebee's in Antioch. His drink was actually margarita mix complete with tequila and triple sec.

At the time the restaurant said the juice and margarita mix were stored in similar containers, and that led to the mistake. After the incident that restaurant said it changed its policies so alcohol and juices were kept in containers that did not look alike.
